Axygen® MultiRack Pipet Tips, 300 µL, Extended Length, Maxymum Recovery® Surface
“We use the 20-1250 uL Maxymum Recovery Axygen pipette tips across all our labs. Some people would say 'it's just a tip' but we receive reliable and accurate liquid dispensing from this product. This is important when we are working with high-cost low volume reagents. We love the extended length to be able to reach the bottom of 15/50 mL centrifuge tubes!”
Craig Carpenter, Mogrify Ltd
Corning® 15 mL PP Centrifuge Tubes, Bulk Packed with Plug Seal Cap
“These tubes always hold up and never leak, if threaded properly. They can maintain sterile sample storage integrity with ease. I always use these tubes exclusively.”
Lauren Etges, ImmunoVision, Inc
Corning® 50 mL PP Centrifuge Tubes, Conical Bottom with Corning® CentriStar™ Cap, Universal Rack Packed
“The conical bottom tubes were very easy to use. They sealed tightly, so nothing leaked out. We have had nothing but excellent after-sales care from the sellers and manufacturer. We also think these are a great value for the cost.”
Mary Hicks, St. Luke's Mountain States Tumor Institute
Corning® LSE™ Compact Centrifuge, 230V, EU Plug
“I used Corning LSE Compact Centrifuge with no problems whatsoever. So far it has never failed me. I use it to separate carbon nanotubes and other carbon-based materials.”
Asaf Avnon, BIU
